system throughout the body. Each session proceeds in sequential order with specific goals and addressing specific areas of the body. The goal of each session is to create length in the body and level the pelvis. I follow the recipe and customize it to the needs of each person.
The collagen
fibers of connective tissues are described as living crystals that conduct electrical impulses through their piezoelectric capacities, or “pressure electricity.” The crystalline structure of their long, thin, pliable molecules are soft and flexible and generate electric fields when they’re compressed and stretched.
“The important point is that when a bone or cartilage is compressed, when a tendon or ligament stretches, or when the skin is stretched or bent at a joint, minute electric pulsations
Dr. Ida P. Rolf
are set up,” said biophysicist James Oschman. “This information is electrically conducted through the surrounding living matrix.” Physicist and physiologist Valerie Hunt concurs: “Connective tissue seems to dictate the flow of electromagnetic energy throughout the body at the finest level.” In this regard, the significance of posture comes to mind. Proper stacking of one’s bones helps current flow in the body. One of the best ways I know to do that is through awareness of my “Line.”
The “Line”
is both structural and functional. It is structural because we organize the center of gravity of a person’s body segments
around it; it is functional because it is an energetic channel that connects the body with life force energy from the electromagnetic fields of the celestial heavens and the terrestrial Earth. Electromagnetic energy flows in a doughnut-like torus shape around the body with a central column called the pranic tube going down the middle that channels electromagnetic energy into the body. The Rolf “Line” that extends through the central axis of the body is synonymous with the pranic tube.
Our posture is a reflection of
our relationship with gravity. As body segments align and balance, energy flows from electromagnetic fields of the heavens and Earth can support us. A biological scientist said, “Structural integration is powerful because it addresses who we are. That is, where the physical meets the energetic, which is sacred space. It’s a blending of the physical and the nonphysical. The body becomes a vehicle for energy flow and one’s spirit can more freely live on this Earth.”
